madonna - runaway lover lyrics

you lost your reputation on a woman
you didn't understand or care to know
you get your education from your lovers
but now there's just no place for you to go

chorus:

it doesn't pay
to be a runaway lover
it doesn't pay
to give away what you lack
you'll never get your money back

you're set adrift with no direction
just like a ship that's lost at sea
you don't care where you drop your anchor
make sure it doesn't land on me

(chorus, repeat)

walking around on a cloud
'cause every girl you meet just trips on you
saying your name out loud
i guess you met your match
now what will you do

don't give it away

(chorus, repeat)

walking around on a cloud
'cause every girl you meet just trips on you
saying your name out loud
i guess you met your match
now what will you do

it doesn't pay
it doesn't pay
it doesn't pay
to give your heart away
to a runaway lover

uh uh, no way
don't give it away
uh uh, no way
